Have you ever seen a person those who don’t have smartphone?
If you have one then I can bet on that you have so many question about it.
Because truth is everybody want smartphone to access all their emails website searches through mobile because of its mobility. In fact there are 275 million smartphones in USA.

4. H1 Tag missing (Specially in homepage).
This part is very important for bloggers if your page have some content written then make sure your heading must be in H1 tags because Google search crawls for the help them determine what your site is all about with the help of H1 tags.
What if you don’t have one?
There is a terms in Google called SERP its meaning is search engine result page.
Search a topic with the help of your x whenever a person search something on Google then Google algorithm search for H1 tags first then shows the result, if your topic is not in H1 tag link then your web page will not appear in the Google search.
The question is how you can do this and applied in your website pages.
- Whatever your headline make it in H1 tag.
- Put your H1 slightly upper side and make a small gap in between your content and your h1 tag headline.
- Apply a five second rule if your website is resulting what visitor is looking for in Google then its good.

Are you using images with inbuilt text?
Text in images is not good for website ranking because according to you use text as text right.
But according to Google search engine text in images comes under images only your content return on images not going to give any kind of benefit to you. And also Google can not able to read it.
8. Infinity scrolling.
Have you ever observed a webpage when you trying to go bottom of the web page content is still loading?
This is called infinite scrolling.
This thing is happen with all of us because Google boats can’t scroll auto.
It means Google is not able to read your web pages on your website.
Example:- if your site have 100 pages.
No matter but your default settings show only 10 pages recently pages. Whenever Google crawl your site so at that point of time they won’t be able to more than post/pages 10th below 10 post code or 10 pages the recent one. How to Avoid 10 Web Design Mistakes
